as employers deal with employees working from home. This really irks me. Employers should have more trust in their employees and judge them based on results and not stoop to Orwellian measures to keep them in line.

Ha. That's funny because I have bosses telling me to stop working so many hours.

What’s funny is that when I work from home, I’m less likely to visit non-work websites

Use work computer for work and then your personal laptop for surfing and Netflix

I’m glad my company isn’t using the WFH thing to push things like that onto us

Yep, that's not a good company to work for.

I get the reasoning as to why you would stay.

In our case I think it’s based more in paranoia than distrust. We’re a huge company that operates all around the world

Ah, gotcha. That makes sense.

As a manager it’s pretty easy to tell when employees aren’t working

Exactly. That's probably because you are organized with clear objectives

Is there a way to detect if these have already been installed? Does the company need to notify?

Depending on the state you work in, they may need to notify

Using ‘Snipping Tool’ because $30 Snag-It is too expensive?

I have both. Work computer. I don't make a habit of buying software for it.

Problem solved by having a work pc and a desktop.

Except they're also tracking inactivity

Meh, easy enough to fake.
